The result of the discussion was: Delete. There are a few arguments for keeping. One is that the image qualifies for the waiver of the Crown copyright. However, the "provided" items basically give a license of ND, not allowing derivatives. That keeps the image non-free. Second is the claim that there is an exception for items on permanent display in public view. This is the UK's version of

WP:NFCC#8 remains and the image is deleted for that reason. kmccoy (talk) 16:07, 3 November 2009 (UTC)[reply

  • Keep With all due respect, I think this image should be considered as fair use. As it clearly states in my rational. It is believed that the use of postage stamp, to illustrate the stamp in question (as opposed to things appearing in the stamp's design) on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law.

Further reasoning is for it to qualify as fair use is there is no possible commercial disadvantage to the copyright holder by using this image of a stamp in a Wikipedia article because the stamp's value is in the physical stamp, not the design.

It is also clear under UK law that the Crown copyright is waived and no formal licence is required in this instance as stated on the The UK Government web site regarding Waiver of Crown copyright. From the web site:

(Some Crown copyright material is waived. This means that although Crown copyright is asserted no formal licence is required to re-use. The waiver applies to specific categories of material where it is in Government's interests to encourage unrestricted use.)

The only conditions required are the following: You may re-use waiver material free of charge without requiring a formal licence provided that it is:

  1. acknowledged
  2. not used in a misleading way
  3. reproduced accurately and kept up to date

I believe that I have met all these conditions and would ask that the file in question be removed from the deletion list forthwith. Sincerely, (

  • Delete, it's easy to use a stamp catalogue to cite the fact that a stamp was issued for him, and this image serves no other useful purpose. If we have a source saying that CC has been waived here, keep and move to Commons, as it's a good image. Nyttend (talk) 23:32, 24 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Exceptions to copyright:

(As with many other countries the UK defines an exception to copyright infringement for artistic works on public display. Section 62 of the Copyright Designs & Patents Act 1988 states that it is not an infringement of copyright to film, photograph, broadcast or make a graphic image of a building, sculpture, models for buildings or work of artistic craftsmanship if that work is permanently situated in a public place or in premises open to the public.)

This stamp is displayed in the museum in Grytviken so therefor this exception clearly applies.

  • Exceptions to copyright does not apply to , please refer to this commons discussion which clarifies the issue that stamps are not covered by this claim because the crown copyright waiver does not apply to graphic works. Such stamps can only be used under a fair-use claim which this stamp fails per my nomination. ww2censor (talk) 16:37, 25 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]


  • Fair use as well as Exception to copyright does apply: The stamp in question is a scan of a photo that was taken by my father who was a philatelist and also the grandson of the person on the stamp. He used the photo a number of times in catalogs he produced with permission. He has since past away and so I now own the rights to the photograph. I then made a scan of the photo. I also believe fair use and the exceptions to copyright apply since I own the rights to the photo and the stamp is displayed in the museum in Grytviken, I do not believe have infringed on any copyright.

The result of the discussion was: Delete. While the use of nonfree images for identification of dead individuals is occasionally considered acceptable, it is not the case with images of stamps. The fair use rationale given in the stamp template explicitly disallows this, with "It is believed that the use of postage stamps ... to illustrate the stamp in question (as opposed to things appearing in the stamp's design) ... qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law." (emphasis added) This makes the fair use rationale and corresponding arguments below invalid. kmccoy (talk) 01:41, 4 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • With the best will in the world, this is a terrible photograph and unnecessary here; it's essentially a snapshot which adds no understanding to the article in which it is used. It's poorly framed, with extraneous content, such as a part-person in the foreground and a thermostat in the background, and does us no favours. Sorry, but I think we can do better than this.

Keep I cropped the image and photoshoped it removeing background and foreground element. Request reassessment.--IngerAlHaosului (talk) 07:32, 29 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I think it's a lot better now, and usable, and don't mind if this is closed per
WP:SNOW; subject to other opinions, of course. Rodhullandemu 16:51, 29 October 2009 (UTC)[reply
